Anyone here knows the Reed 3Q tonearm?


Hello Guys,

I saw the Reed 3Q around the net and it smells a good tonearm .. it's interesting the 12" Reed 3Q or better I could be interested for my TW Acustic Raven One
Anyone here knows this arm and how it works/sounds?

12" arm does sound relaxed. I have 6 9" arm before I get 12" Grandezza. It does sound better in all department, which is why I'm reluctant to get 10.5" for my next tonearm.
Hello Raul, maybe I'm using the wrong term, I'm not good with words anyway. What I mean is I feel more at ease with 12" tonearm.

To be more specific, with Judy Collins "Judith" which is my reference lp for female vocal. 1st tract side A, with 9" tonearm there are parts like she's almost to a point of shouting,and more upfront. With 12" tonearm her voice feel relaxed and I never get tired of playing it. One may point out I'm using different tonearms. But how many could afford one 9" Grandezza and another 12" in this real world.

Happy listening,
